You basically have the idea down, yet you may want to have the Management company NOT owned by the owing entity as well you may want to structure the ownership entity as a Corp, so that you can #1: collect a W2 #2: contribute to a solo 401K #3: Run more personal expenses through the entity for tax write off options such as health ins. and other insurances.

I have my broker's license in CO but it is inactive and I'm going to keep it that way for the time being until I start to get some deals going, having access to the MLS would be an incredible tool though as well as being able to use showing time to schedule my own showings.There is actually a property I was checking out yesterday, the listed price is far too high for a flip based off of my rehab estimate but my estimate also seems quite high at 86K for a 1007sqft ranch w/ 3bed/1bath.Would pretty much be a gut job, all windows replaced, carpet removed and hardwood refinished, full kitchen/BR remodel (kitchen is 10x10, BR is 10x8), driveway and entry sidewalk repair, possible foundation issue, new patio or deck, and then landscape cleanup.Roof is in pretty good condition, there is water damage in the BR around the tub.

What Charlie said plus factor in all the expenses the agent has such as gas, vehicle maintenance and insurance, health insurance, E&O insurance, desk fees, MLS fees, Realtor association fees, marketing, cell phone, etc. and they’re almost certainly losing money on this transaction even with the $800 added on.
